"I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it"

This week we're binge-watching the entire Back To The Future Trilogy and, while there's no argument about the brilliance of the original, we ask whether Parts II and III were actually any good or not. Meanwhile, Producer Jonny takes a close look at the weird world of George McFly actor Crispin Glover, and Rachael discovers an alternate reality where a different actor played Marty.

“While there was breath in my body, she would never lack sufficient AA batteries.”

This week we're reading David Nicholls much anticipated novel "Us", the story of middle aged Biochemist Douglas Peterson whose wife announces her intention to leave him when their teenage son leaves home for University – but first there's the small matter of taking one final family holiday together.

We discuss how the novel measures up to Nicholl's previous smash hit One Day, and Rachael takes a look at some strategies other authors have used to deal with the pressure of writing a follow-up. Meanwhile, Paul reveals that the book made him cry, and takes the opportunity to list 10 TV shows which also cause him to blub like a little girl.
